Digestive Enzymes AL-90 Ingredients & Drug Interactions
What is this page for?
First and foremost: checking Digestive Enzymes AL-90 against your medications. The heart of this page is the interaction checker and the full interaction report — how this product’s ingredients may interact with prescription and over-the-counter medicines you may be taking.
Around that, we add a pharmacist’s high-level view of the product as a whole — what’s inside, the evidence for its stated use, how transparent the label is, and what safety data exists — so you can see the full picture in one place. It’s educational information from our licensed clinical databases and the clinical staff at HelloPharmacist — not medical advice — and we don’t sell or endorse products. Our editorial policy
Digestive Enzymes AL-90 is a dietary supplement by Allegany Nutrition with 14 active ingredients. Its ingredients are commonly taken for lactose intolerance, gas and bloating after dairy, diarrhea from dairy foods.We don’t currently list a known drug interaction for its mapped ingredients — but that doesn’t guarantee none exist, so always confirm with your pharmacist.
HelloPharmacist Scorecard of Digestive Enzymes AL-90 by Allegany Nutrition
Our pharmacy team’s full take, with four database checks built into the cards below — a summary of what is known, not a grade of the product itself.
What’s inside
Low disclosure
This formula contains 14 active ingredients — a mix of digestive enzymes (lactase, lipase, protease, cellulase, phytase, peptidase, hemicellulase, amylase, glucoamylase, invertase, pectinase, acid stable protease, and beta glucanase) plus ionic trace minerals. The enzymes are meant to help break down different types of food (sugars, fats, proteins, and fiber) in your digestive tract.
The inactive ingredients are cellulose, water, and rice extract. These are fillers and binders that hold the capsule together.
Does it work?
Strong evidence
The evidence on these enzymes is mostly inconclusive. Lactase is rated effective for lactose intolerance — that one's well established.
For everything else — lipase and dyspepsia or inflammatory bowel disease, protease for any condition, phytase for iron or zinc deficiency, and the rest — we don't have enough reliable data to say whether they work. That doesn't mean they don't; it means the research isn't there yet in the sources we use.
How safe is it?
Well-documented data
The ingredients we could check are generally well tolerated when used as directed. The main concern is allergy: lactase, protease (including the acid stable form), and phytase can all trigger allergic reactions in sensitive people — ranging from skin reactions and allergic rhinitis (stuffy, itchy nose and eyes) to occupational asthma in those exposed to the powdered forms.
If you've had allergies to enzyme products or detergents before, mention that to your doctor or pharmacist. For pregnancy: lactase is likely safe, but lipase, protease, phytase, and acid stable protease all have little to no safety data in pregnancy — the advice is to use them only if your doctor says to.
For breastfeeding, the same three (lipase, protease, phytase, and acid stable protease) haven't been well studied, so check with your healthcare provider first. We have no pregnancy or breastfeeding data on file for cellulase, peptidase, hemicellulase, amylase, glucoamylase, invertase, pectinase, or ionic trace minerals.
Meds to double-check
No known interactions
No interactions are documented in our data for the ingredients we checked. That's not a guarantee none exist — it means we've found no documented drug interactions for lactase, lipase, protease, phytase, or acid stable protease.
We couldn't check cellulase, peptidase, hemicellulase, amylase, glucoamylase, invertase, pectinase, ionic trace minerals, or beta glucanase. Run your specific medications through the tool on this page or ask your pharmacist to be sure.
The bottom line
Scorecard at a glanceFormula with limited ingredient disclosure with clinical evidence supporting its stated purpose. No medication interactions are currently documented, and safety information is well characterized.
If you have trouble digesting lactose, lactase here is your enzyme — that one's proven to help. For the others, the evidence is thin or missing, so this is more of a try-and-see product.
If you're pregnant, breastfeeding, or have a digestive disorder like inflammatory bowel disease, talk with your doctor or pharmacist before starting it. And if you've had allergic reactions to enzyme products, mention that up front.
